A Bulleted Post: The Overwhelmed And Floopy Version

by Leslie

I’m feeling all out of control, lately. Like there’s just too much I’m responsible for and I can’t quite get my arms around it all. So, while I’m exhausting myself trying to keep up, it appears that I’m doing everything half-assed. And I’m not a half-assed person at all. I’m a big ass person. So, it’s frustrating.

When I feel like this, me no put words together good. But I’ve got stuff to tell you and requests to make. So, it’s bullets. Let’s go!

I started a Daily Haiku feature for my blogdiggity space, here. Check it out, yo.

I’m still ~~begging~~ looking for This Is Motherhood submissions. Show me love, show me life. Baby, show me what it’s all about. You’re the only one that I ever needed. Show me love and what it’s all about. Alright. (See the italics? That’s me singing to you. Do you see how heartfelt my plea is? Singing!)

My husband has a mega-crush on Kellie Pickler. He is trying to deny it in spite of this incriminating evidence written in response to his friend’s admission that, “I’m secretly in love with Kellie Pickler so it really doesn’t matter what she says. That’s just me, though. I’m such a sucker for incredible looking blondes . . . dumb or not. I will say that my wife has roughly 4 million more brain cells than Pickler but . . . ”

And David writes:

“Pickler is something, isn’t she? The wife is watching me so I had better just leave it at that. LoL.”

Doesn’t that tell you he has thoughts about her that are impure in nature, so much so that he doesn’t want me to know them? If your answer is yes, do me a solid and go let him know. If your answer is no, then move along. Nothing to see here.

I agreed to make cookies for the reception following Julia’s piano recital this weekend. What kind should I make? I’m looking for a kick ass recipe that will make people want to crown me the Goddess of Cookie Making. Any suggestions?

It’s been a while since I did a video blog. Is it time for another one?

Here’s a GREAT one… I had to do the cookie thing this week, too, and I got major kudos:

I made some really yummy chocolate chip cookies a while back. They were like bakery cookies. But, is chocolate chip fancy enough? Awe inspiring enough? I dunno. If you want the recipe email me. If you don’t, you won’t hurt my feelings.

Definitely time for a video blog. WITH LUCY! Her first guest appearance on the internet. Awwww.

You know I’m no help with all things cooking-related, but I must second Karly’s video blog request of you doing one with Lucy. That would be awesome.

I think Kellie Pickler is cute. She’s kinda of airy, but it in a good way.

If you think you are overwhelmed and burned out, do I have the thing for you. My book club just finished reading the novel, “The Book of Mom” by Taylor Wilshire. It is a funny, page turner that you can’t put down about motherhood and how we can get our passion to life and our self restored. It is loaded with Oprah-like, self-help tools and spirituality like meditation–which I am not into but thought the book was hands down the best thing I have read in years. Have you read it? Would you share your insights if you have?
